Headlights for Europe

Can anyone answer me this question please?

I have just retired and we will be taking our motorhome to europe regularly. Probably spending half the time in europe and half in UK. Rather than use the sticky-on headlamp adapters I was thinking that I would fit an additional set of headlights with european
lenses. These would be controlled by a dashboard switch marked up 'Left' and 'Right' wich would switch between the 2 sets.

I can fit the additional lights alonside the front grill at the same height as the existing headlights and everything would be 'E' marked etc. but I can't find out if this is legal under :-

a) Construction and use regs.

b) M.O.T. regs.

Neither mention having 2 sets of lights fitted.

Has anyone any experience of this, as I don't beleive that noone has done this before.

Thanks everyone.
